You are right that we could. But we won't. Learning a language is difficult, it is very difficult and takes years and years of practice and study. Additionally, you need to get the large majority of the world to support this universal language.
Most people do not care to learn a new language. Most people who learned a second language already learned English. Realistically, they are not going to want to put that effort to waste.
I get your points, but do you think what you are suggesting is realistic? Do you think it could be done in a way that does not benefit the current countries who are in power? Do you think countries will even be able to agree on a new language?
